The blockchain experts also will be in charge of coding the core code, underlying optimization and solving performance problems during the actual running.

However, the most interesting thing in the job description is that, Lenovo pointed out that blockchain talents will be formed into a ‘new team’ and the job development prospect is bright. Building up a new team can be a clue of lauching to new projects. As global technology giant IBM has already put much effort into blockchain area and launched lots of projects based on this new technology, no wonder Lenovo wants to follow big brother’s steps and do some research in this area.

Blockchain is not only popular in technology industry, but also hot for logistics industry. S.F. Express, the logistics giant of China, also posted its recruitment advertisement in order to attract talent.

The job description for blockchain experts looks similar with Lenovo’s with just slightly different. S.F.

In addition, other than these two industry giants, many other Chinese leading enterprises are also looking for blockchain talent. Meitu, Tencent, MI, HNA Group, Sunning Commerce Group and Alibaba Group, they all join in the war for blockchain talent and that’s why we say 2018 is a year of blockchian.
